Hi, not seeking to name or quote, but as a matter of reference- can someone please describe the sort of documented instances of LLM Traffic degrading/taking down peoples websites?

tinbox << need to cluster adjacent GitHub reacji posts, reacji to the same URL, reacji to issues/comments in the same repo
#
Loqi
ok, I added "need to cluster adjacent GitHub reacji posts, reacji to the same URL, reacji to issues/comments in the same repo" to the "See Also" section of /User:Tantek.com/tinbox https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=105451&oldid=102266
#
[tantek]
does anyone else (frequently) post GitHub reacji to their own website (e.g. POSSE via Bridgy Publish) ?
#
[tantek]
lol I manually used Bridgy Publish so many times in a row via the UI in short succession (like 9 times in <10min maybe?) that GitHub made me re-auth Bridgy and prompted me with a 2FA challenge. anyone else seen this? (exceeding GitHub's limit for service API calls within a time frame)

this is a very impressive 256 byte webp image. not 256k. 256 *bytes* total https://256-byte-site.netlify.app/me/me.webp

[tantek]
how do you put a literal backtick in markdown lol
#
[tantek]
ah, double backticks. of course.
#
[tantek]
aciccarello, TIL: GH repos now have a "Security" tab at the top which takes you to a list of published security advisories about the repo, and a UI to submit a new one! E.g. https://github.com/tantek/cassis/security — submitting a security advisory is only visible to maintainers of the repo.

[KevinMarks]
which is why a big code block is triple backticks. Escaping escapes is always annoying.
#
[tantek]
It feels like elaborate syntactic satire tbh
#
[KevinMarks]
like CSV does

CuppaRex[d] I just checked with the Python microformats parser and all the rel=me links are showing up on the page.
#
capjamesg
When you said the "link that indieauth is picking up from my website", what were you trying to log into?
#
crystalwoohoo
capjamesg[d]: oh I'm sorry, that was a typo. i meant indiewebify.me
#
crystalwoohoo
yesterday i tried signing into https://indieweb.org/ and it wouldn't work. but i didn't get mastadon until this morning. let me retry. I just thought it wasn't working still because indiewebify.me wasn't picking the links up when i tested it there.

capjamesg

mod_security is a web application firewall for the Apache web server https://indieweb.org/mod_security

I'm not that familiar with WordPress but thankfully there are plenty of others here who are!
